User Reviews

Users find BG Home app challenging to use due to difficult pairing and frequent connection failures. Timers do not adjust automatically for daylight savings time, forcing manual corrections. The app has stability issues such as crashes and freezing, and customer support appears unresponsive to persistent bugs. Despite these problems, users appreciate some basic features like parental controls and timer settings. Overall, the app's flaws cause significant frustration, especially during setup and multi-device management.

Pros

Works well once connected and timers function properly.
Parental controls enable locking sockets to timers and disabling physical buttons.
Allows timer setup for devices.
Basic functionality of switching smart sockets on and off.

Cons

Difficult and unreliable pairing process, often requiring router reconfiguration and long setup times.
App frequently fails to connect or recognize sockets; pairing modes (smart config/AP) often fail or are confusing.
Lack of proper adaptation for daylight savings time causing timers to require manual resetting.
App instability including crashes and freezing, especially when managing individual socket halves.
Poor customer support and unresolved bugs, with users experiencing recurring problems and workarounds being ineffective.

Recent reviews

So I've found this app 'ok', until recently when I discovered that the timing feature doesn't adapt to local daylight savings. Consequently I have to adjust my timers every 6 months when the clocks change. Such a simple thing to accommodate, but not dealt with by the developers. I'll upgrade my rating if they ever introduce this.

The android version of this app would not let me connect a new smart socket no matter what I tried. I switched over to an ios version and it worked perfectly. An update after using for a few weeks. Today, I noticed that the socket did not change automatically with the clocks going back one hour. I went into the app to see if I could adjust the timer I had set up and was met with a "web page not available error" within the app. This app is not fit for purpose.
